Yes, we lived in Southern California during Reagan's governorship.  Not a
good time to be associated with the University of California, even with the
meek campus.  Life in Idaho was and is far more tolerable.  I don't know
where you're going with "most American's (sic) view Native American and
immigration policies" but I have never derided Native Americans nor their
culture nor their lifestyles.  Modern or historical.  Margaret
